I usually like lyrics, but in this case (to answer your question) less is more. I like the way this hangs together on it's own. As I said earlier, VERY PRETTY

Dreamily. Singing, being intimate, should not destroy magic here. The main thing - do not overdo with it ;-)

Really cool how the auto swell backs up the mic'd track so well.

Very nice man. I say run one with a vocal and one without. Let the listener decide. ;)

Beautiful guitar track, Kavin. Maybe whisper-y vocals with heavy reverb or just a subtle accompanying guitar might add just enough.

P.S. I don't know about "ruin" with a vocal part, probably not "ruin" but it does hold up nicely as is......just my penn'orth. Jarvo

Gorgeous! How did you get that effect on the guitar? Sounds like a second guitar with the attack time slowed down. Nice!
